Our year 10 pupils are undertaking their work experience this week. This is a really important week for them and I am sure they will make the positive impression that our pupils always do on this week.
Wouldn't it be fantastic if all of our pupils were equipped with an ipad as they completed this week? For example, they would be able to record observations from their experience, interview work colleagues, upload and send information back to school, keep a diary and so on. Often, on return to school, pupils tend to forget much of the detail from the experiences of the week - using a iPad would help to to ensure their experiences are recorded in one place and will be also easily shared with others on their return.
One of our problems as teachers, is ensuring that we visit all of the pupils when they are on placement - with iPads we could FaceTime or Skype pupils and their supervisors as they complete the week (as well as trying to visit them all).
What do you think?
